ST VINCENT DE PAUL NIGHT PATROL SANDWICH MAKING AND DOLLAR FOR A DINNER MUFTI DAY
I am pleased to announce that St Aidan’s is rostered on to make sandwiches once a term for the remainder of the year. We will make 200 sandwiches that will be delivered to St Vincent de Paul and given out on the Night Patrol van.
On Friday 21 June, we will have our “Dollar for a Dinner” Mufti Day. All students are welcome to wear mufti clothes on that day and donate a gold coin. This money will be used to buy sandwich ingredients for the St Vincent de Paul Night Patrol.
On Tuesday 2 July at 1:00 pm, the Mini Vinnies students will make 200 sandwiches to be distributed that night. We warmly welcome any parents, older siblings and family members to help with this task.

STAFF SPIRITUALITY DAY
Last Tuesday the Staff from St Aidan's engaged in a Spirituality Day whereby we were given the opportunity to deepen our faith and our connection with God. The focus for this day was "Being called to discipleship”.
Ephesians 4:1-6
I therefore, the prisoner in the Lord, beg you to lead a life worthy of the calling to which you have been called, with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love, making every effort to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called to the one hope of your calling, one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father of all, who is above all and through all and in all.
